FAQ

  1. What is mobileTV?

    With this mobileTV platform you can receive video messages on your mobile Phone device. Broadcasts are target group specific. There is no need for interaction with the receiver. Our technique uses a very small applet which is installed on the mobile Phone device and this applet communicates with the server. The server schedules the broadcasts per channel and delivers the clips to the mobile phone.

  2. Does it work for my mobile Phone device?

    Most of the mobile Phone devices with connection to the Internet are suitable for mobYclips. Of all the options are available depends on the brand and model of your device. Check if your device is compatable on www.blendedmedia.nl/supported.

    To see if your mobile Phone device is supported, send a text message “moby demo” to 5040. If supported you will receive a text message containing a link to install the applet, When your device is not supported yet, you will receive a text message with that statement. You will receive a message as soon as your device is supported.
